Chapter 231 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze 5
The old physician's heart skipped a beat. Recalling the changes at Prince Jingyu's mansion today, he immediately realized what was going on. He nervously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and cautiously probed, "The princess's pulse is weak and feeble, like withered wood. It is a case of deficiency of both qi and blood, and a weak body."
Xiao Ruojin nodded gently and asked softly, "Your Highness is so weak, how should she be cared for?"
Upon hearing this, the old physician felt slightly relieved, and his speech became more fluent. He claimed that the princess was weak and needed to rest in bed. She could not see anyone until she recovered. After saying this, he left a few more doses of medicine before taking the reward money and leaving.
Xiao Ruojin instructed the servants to go out and prepare the medicine, while she sat by Yi Wenjun's bedside for a long time, carefully sorting through the original owner's memories.
He meticulously reviewed everything from his childhood, every person he encountered, the historical context of the world, the imperial court, the martial arts world, and so on.
Then he suddenly discovered that if one mastered the highest level of martial arts in this world, one could actually become an immortal.
Become an immortal!!!
If this is true, wouldn't it be even more powerful than his telekinetic abilities?
Xiao Ruojin suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes flashing with a blazing light, and she couldn't wait to start searching through information about martial arts in her mind.
In this world, Ji Ruofeng, the head of the Hundred Knowledge Hall, defines all martial artists in the world as First Rank. Those below First Rank are merely ordinary martial artists, while those above First Rank are considered masters. The First Rank and above are further divided into four realms: Vajra Mortal Realm, Free and Easy Earth Realm, Carefree Heaven Realm (which is further subdivided into Nine Heavens, Soaring, Great Carefree, and Half-Step Divine Travel), and Divine Travel Mysterious Realm.
Among them, the Divine Realm is hailed as the highest realm of martial arts. One can sit quietly with eyes closed, yet one's thoughts can roam freely thousands of miles away, having long transcended the realm of mortals, and thus becoming a legendary immortal.
My goodness!
If he can reach the realm of spiritual travel, wouldn't he be one step closer to going home?
This thought made Xiao Ruojin's breathing quicken, but he regained his composure after a short while.
How easy is it to travel to a mystical realm in spirit?
Moreover, whether the ability to travel to the mystical realm can truly break through the void and return to the original world is still unknown.
Xiao Ruojin slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, calming her turbulent emotions.
You have to try to know if it will work or not.
However, we must be prepared for things to go wrong and fulfill the original owner's wishes first, so that we don't end up with nothing to show for it and nothing being accomplished.
So, on the first day of her transmigration, Xiao Ruojin set two small goals for herself.
First: Seize the throne and become emperor;
Second: Martial arts reach a state of divine mastery, allowing one to roam in a mystical realm.
With a clear goal in mind, Xiao Ruojin felt full of energy and couldn't wait to rush into the palace, depose Emperor Tai'an, become emperor herself, and save time to practice her martial arts.
Unfortunately, his current abilities do not allow it.
He's in a hurry to get home, not in a hurry to die.
With so many experts in the palace, the original owner's current cultivation level was simply not enough to contend with them.
What if you end up losing your life instead of successfully usurping the throne? Where will you go to cry then?
Therefore, we must be careful and cautious in doing things, and not be impatient. We must take it one step at a time.
His most pressing task right now is to deal with Ye Dingzhi first.
"I almost forgot about Ye Dingzhi." Xiao Ruojin patted her forehead, then glanced at Yi Wenjun, who was still unconscious, before turning back to the front hall.
By this time, Xiao Ruofeng had seen off all the guests who had come to the banquet.
These guests came to the wedding banquet, but now the bride has suddenly fallen into a coma and is not waking up. How could they possibly have the nerve to sit here and enjoy the feast? They only stayed for a short while before leaving one after another.
"Brother, how is sister-in-law?"
When Xiao Ruofeng saw Xiao Ruojin come out, he quickly went up to her and asked.
He already felt quite guilty for breaking up Ye Dingzhi and Yi Wenjun, and if something were to happen to Yi Wenjun now, he would probably feel even more guilty.
Xiao Ruojin calmly repeated what the imperial physician had just said: "The imperial physician said she's fine, she just needs to rest more."
Hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was also puzzled as to why Yi Wenjun, a master of the Free Realm, would suddenly be so weak, since the imperial physician said she was fine, there should be nothing seriously wrong.
Thinking of Ye Dingzhi, who had just been seriously injured, he said, "Brother, now that sister-in-law is alright, Ruofeng can rest assured. I still have some things to take care of, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, Xiao Ruofeng turned to leave.
Xiao Ruojin smiled faintly and raised her hand to stop him: "Ruofeng, don't be in such a hurry to leave. There's something else I'd like to ask you for help with."
Xiao Ruofeng keenly sensed the change in his brother's way of addressing him, and that his brother's attitude was no longer as intimate as before, and a sense of unease suddenly arose in his heart.
"What is it, brother?"
Xiao Ruojin smiled faintly: "You'll know once you come with me."
Xiao Ruojin took the lead, followed closely by Xiao Ruofeng, and the two stood one after the other at the entrance of the study.
Xiao Ruojin turned to Xiao Ruofeng and smiled slightly. She then entered the study first, ignoring the two people on the ground, and slowly walked to the desk to sit down.
Xiao Ruofeng followed him into the study and immediately saw the person in the middle of the room. He was shocked and exclaimed, "Xiaoying? What are you doing here?"
At this moment, Ye Xiaoying was kneeling on the ground, bound hand and foot, his mouth stuffed so he couldn't speak, only making 'woo woo' sounds from his throat, while gesturing for Xiao Ruofeng to look at the other person on the ground.
Xiao Ruofeng followed Ye Xiaoying's gaze and saw that Ye Dingzhi was also bound hand and foot, his mouth gagged. Due to his previous serious injuries, there were still bloodstains on his clothes, making him look even worse than Ye Xiaoying.
“Brother, they…” Xiao Ruofeng suddenly raised his head, wanting to question Xiao Ruojin about why he had captured Ye Xiaoying and Ye Dingzhi here, but Xiao Ruojin interrupted him: “Ruofeng, can you tell me where you are taking Ye Dingzhi?”
Xiao Ruojin's voice was so soft, yet it gave people an invisible pressure, making them feel their hearts pound involuntarily.
Xiao Ruofeng felt the pressure and realized that his brother already knew about Ye Dingzhi's attempt to steal the bride today. Thinking of his brother's past behavior and his emphasis on Yi Wenjun, he decided not to hide it anymore and stated directly: "Brother, today I can forcibly break up the marriage for the greater good, but no matter what you think, Ye Dingzhi cannot die. This is my bottom line."
As he spoke, Xiao Ruofeng drew his Haoque sword and cut the iron chains binding Ye Xiaoying and Ye Dingzhi. He then stepped forward and shielded the two men with his body.
"Great righteousness? A casual marriage?"
Faced with Xiao Ruofeng's statement, Xiao Ruojin frowned slightly, her tone tinged with self-mockery: "So in your eyes, Ye Dingzhi and Yi Wenjun are truly in love, a loving couple, while I am just a despicable and shameless person who forcibly breaks up people's marriages?"
